Chapter Supports Operation Holiday Block Leave 2020

In December, Santa Claus and members of the chapter volunteered to support Operation Holiday Block Leave. They provided much needed and welcomed help to the staff of the United Service Organization (USO) Region IV office, located at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The chapter also provided a variety of pastries and treats as soldiers spent a little layover time on their trip home for the holidays. Members wished a safe and Merry Christmas to over 2,500 military members from Fort Gordon's Communications Center of Excellence. The pictures show the volunteers providing snack treats to the troops as they headed to their boarding gates. In addition to the "goodie bags", the team worked to provide travel information, a quick bite to eat in the USO lounge, and welcomed returning troops from other parts of the country. The USO and the chapter have collaborated to support this event for over two decades.
